Loss of reason, loss of heart, loss of trust. Heed the soothsayer? Do we ever? Dragons are about, but that is another game play.
O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason! Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.
~Shakespeare

You’ve quoted Shakespeare AND linked to Billy Joel in the same post.
*swoon*
Thanks. But before you get too impressed I should admit that I know the song lyrics and had to look up the Shakespeare. ~Tim

Okay I’ll be the first to say it. I’m confused.
That’s okay. The Shakespeare quote is from Mark Anthony’s “Friends, Romans, countrymen…” speech in the play Julius Cesar following the title character’s death on the ides of March (15 March). So the theme of the playlist is betrayal. My dragon reference is a reference [an intentionally obtuse reference] to a personal betrayal. [Obtuse, it occurs to me now, is a really dull point....] ~Tim
